Painting Description
"Le Repos Pendant La Fuite En Egypte" (Rest on the Flight into Egypt) is a significant Baroque painting by the Italian artist Carlo Saraceni. Created in the early 17th century, this artwork depicts the Holy Family—Joseph, Mary, and the infant Jesus—taking a moment of rest during their flight to Egypt to escape King Herod's Massacre of the Innocents, a biblical event recounted in the Gospel of Matthew. Saraceni's interpretation of this religious scene is noted for its intimate portrayal of the family and the serene atmosphere that contrasts with the underlying narrative of escape and danger.
Carlo Saraceni (1579–1620) was a Venetian painter who spent a significant portion of his career in Rome, where he became influenced by the works of Caravaggio and the Caravaggisti, artists who followed Caravaggio's dramatic use of chiaroscuro and realistic depictions of figures. "Le Repos Pendant La Fuite En Egypte" reflects Saraceni's mastery of light and shadow, as well as his ability to convey emotion and narrative through composition and the interaction of figures.
The painting is notable for its delicate color palette and the gentle treatment of the landscape, which provides a backdrop to the central figures. Mary is typically shown cradling the Christ Child or engaging in a moment of maternal care, while Joseph is often depicted in a protective or contemplative pose. The inclusion of angels or other divine signs is common in such representations, emphasizing the holy nature of the family and their divine mission.
"Le Repos Pendant La Fuite En Egypte" by Carlo Saraceni remains an important work within the Baroque period for its stylistic qualities and its contribution to the iconography of the Flight into Egypt in art history. The painting is housed in a notable museum or private collection, and it continues to be studied for its artistic and cultural significance within the oeuvre of Saraceni and the broader context of 17th-century Italian painting.
